Private transfer from Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport to Playa Granada

Playa Granada sits on the Costa Tropical just west of Motril, on the coastline of Granada province rather than Málaga's. The beach is long, dark-sand and pebble, backed by a promenade and low-rise apartment blocks and villas rather than high-rise hotels. Los Moriscos Golf Club runs alongside it, which draws golfers through autumn and spring when the Andalusian coast stays mild. Families and Granada residents fill the apartments in July and August; the rest of the year it is quiet. The Motril marina and commercial port are a few minutes east, and the hill town of Salobreña with its Moorish castle is a short drive west. It suits people who want a calm, residential beach base with easy access to the Alpujarras and the city of Granada inland.

The route runs almost entirely on the A-7 Autovía del Mediterráneo, heading east from the airport past Málaga city, Rincón de la Victoria, Torre del Mar and Nerja. Once past Nerja the motorway leaves the built-up coast and cuts through the cliffs and tunnels of the Maro–Cerro Gordo stretch, one of the more scenic parts of the drive, before crossing into Granada province at La Herradura and Almuñécar. Expect around 100 kilometres and roughly an hour and a quarter with clear traffic. The final approach turns off toward Motril and down to the Playa Granada developments, which spread across several access roads between the golf course and the seafront, so the exact door can take a few extra minutes to reach.
